The member of our Department Katarína Karľová was awarded on International Conference on Statistical Physics (SigmaPhi2023, 10th-14th July 2023, Chania, Greece) for The best poster presentation with the title: Frustrated magnetism of a quantum mixed spin-(1, 1/2) Heisenberg octahedral chain from a statistical-mechanical monomer-dimer model. Congratulation on this great achievement!
Magic in Two Dimensions
The breakthroughs started with graphite and Scotch tape. Transition metal dichalcogenides moiré materials could act as “simulators” of the Hubbard model, potentially solving some of the field’s deepest mysteries. Read more here.
